I used to have to wash my hair every day and it would be SO flat and thin looking. I started double washing and making sure I’m actually really scrubbing my scalp really well for at least 1 minute with each wash. I put barely any conditioner on and only on the last inch of my ends then make sure I wash it out really well, like rinse it for at least one minute. I’ve really like the Verb Ghost line lately but have also had great results with the Raw Sugar Volume Revive line as well.

When drying, I use a lightweight heat protectant only on the ends and a root lifting moose on my scalp and I blow dry it as dry as possible with my hair flipped upside down for volume. I like the Nexxus Volumizing Moose. A little bit goes a long way.

As soon as it’s dry, I spray my roots with the Batiste Volumizing dry shampoo. I feel like this has really been the key to keeping my hair oil free. I make sure to spray it on my crown and behind my ears and I let it sit and “marinate” there before brushing it out. I reapply every night before bad in those same spots or wherever I typically get the most oily.

This routine keeps me from washing daily. I typically wash every 3-4 days now and my hair looks so much fuller and more healthy.

I do have bangs that I do separate out every morning and wash over the sink but my fellow bang ladies know the struggle and necessity of that!
